for Jennifer
The Universe was born out of a singularity and
is composed of but one lonely verse.
It is expanding in search of another Universe.
Then, as a Multiverse, they might merge one day.
In the Universe we also find stars and planets all alone.
Even those that have the company of debris or moons
cannot touch them or by those be touched.
This is a scenario of a certain gravity.
Comets and meteors provide orgasms
when they crash into a celestial body.
The larger the crashing object the greater the spasm.
Material spread out in circles of pain, later pleasure. Or even life.
We too are a by-product of this truly divine sex.
Planets ova; comets sperm.
